Legendary French composer, producer, innovator, and visionary Jean-Michel Jarre will make his Ibiza debut this summer, with an exclusive live performance at the iconic Amnesia nightclub.
Recognized as one of the world’s most accomplished artists, Jean-Michel Jarre has been a pioneering figurehead for a futuristic representation of electronic music for over 50 years. With 22 studio albums and over 85 million worldwide sales to date, his music and performances featuring boundary-pushing production sit at the intersection of technology and innovation.
“Amnesia is a trip — an escape from time. No past, no future, just the intensity of the moment. That space of freedom is where my music has always lived. I’m thrilled to do my very first Ibiza concert at Amnesia to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the club.”– Jean-Michel Jarre
Famed for record-breaking concerts in front of audiences in their millions, Jean-Michel Jarre has always put technology at the heart of his shows; a pioneer of multi-channel audio, VR, and even the metaverse, his immersive productions are typically hosted by prestigious venues including the Eiffel Tower, Pompei, the Great Pyramids of Egypt, the Sahara Desert, the Forbidden City and Tiananmen Square in China, Masada, and the Dead Sea. His Ibiza debut will therefore be a rare opportunity to experience the French visionary in an intimate venue as he brings his unique vision to Amnesia’s legendary Terrace.
Beforehand, guests will experience a live performance from Berlin-based artist Joplyn. Blending ethereal vocals, melodic depth and cinematic production, her immersive sets channel a contemporary electronic influence, with the live performance sitting as a complimentary representation of Jean-Michel Jarre’s enduring impact on electronic music in a live space.
The final support comes in the form of a DJ set by Les Schmitz. A DJ deeply embedded in the island’s sonic evolution and nightlife culture and Amnesia resident since 2003, this symbolic moment will represent his innate understanding of the venue’s acoustics and emotional temperature as he guides the audience into the night.
The one-off event takes place during Amnesia’s 50th anniversary year – a tangible reminder that the venue which has spent five decades at the forefront of electronic music can still surprise and bring new experiences to the island. It’s an anniversary that carries clear message – an invitation to dance from a club that has shaped lives, relationships, and careers. A place powered by a legacy that has defined dance culture across generations.
As a constant in the island’s ever-evolving landscape, Amnesia has remained focused on the room, the music, and the people inside it. Its legacy a defining proof that feeling lasts. Everything else fades as noise. A meeting point for scenes, cultures, and identities, history written in sound. Amnesia exists to be lost in. To disappear. To let go. The dancefloor as equal ground.
